This dark and glossy glaze is a great addition to many cookies, cakes, pastries, and even ice cream that need a chocolate boost. Add it to a chocolate cookie and the glaze sends them over the top!

Why try?
Need a chocolate fix? This will definitely take care of it.

Foodie Byte:
Very versatile, this glaze can be drizzled or applied with a small offset spatula. An easy way to coat cookies is by dunking them upside-down in this rich but somewhat thin icing.
